Are too many newbies expecting a unicorn-type deal?

It WAS unreasonable for others, but you thought it was reasonable. And that’s my point :slight_smile:
edit: It was last year, actually.

Keep posting the unreasonable deal requests from “unicorn” hunters.

I came to skim this thread given my experiences on my most recent thread. The content is decidedly not what I was expecting!

That said, I’ll definitely be back.

This was me. I didn’t make an “assumption,” I was incorrect on my figures as someone new to leasing, Leasehackr, (and yes, after reading all the articles and how-to’s), and ready to spend his money with you. Great business model to openly talk about your potential customers in an open forum. Noted.

If you look at the trophy garage, the most deals you see are from 2019 and some 2020s, not too many 2021 trophy garage photos. I think people look at those and expect that to be replicated two years later.
I highly doubt that we will go to everyday unicorns anytime soon, it’s a shame but it is what it is.

Unless you are leasing a Chevy Bolt EV or Audi eTron this year.

Now than the Flying Unicorn of $1600 for a Bolt just dropped, the newbs can expect Free Cars.

Even the Etron ship sailed on 3/31 so we are literally left with just Bolts

And merely finding a Bolt loaner is almost a unicorn.

Even with those, the e-tron deals aren’t as good as they were previously.

Reading the post about someone claiming to be a lease expert and being ripped off by a dealer makes no sense. The OP made quite a few LH no-nos, including:

  1. Walking into a dealership to negotiate in person.
  2. Not doing their research/homework.
  3. Payment shopping.

I’m confused, he knew how to fill out a calculator and ended up paying 1k over on a Sorrento, something amiss here.

I am not even sure what advice we can offer since the contract is signed, and the deal involved a trade.
